What was your message

    When going door to door

    1. were you delivering good news (without an IF) like, "your landlord has given you the house"
    2. or were you selling 'love' like, "if you do as we do then you will be loved"
    3. or were you pretending to be normal but giving the underlying warning about the imaginary beast-god - who was perhaps going to get yourself.

    I was delivering the good news, because I thought it was true. For those of you didn't believe that, I feel very sorry for you.

    I was delivering the good news. Now I feel sorry for myself. What do I do now?

    A Paduan,

    I was trying to help people to have a better life than what they had. I was trying to promote a way of life which helped the family and the individual. The way of life exemplified by the teachings of Jesus and the Watchtower.

    When I went door to door I often used the scripure John 17:3 . I wanted those I saw at the door to have everlasting life and I truly believed I had the key to that "knowledge".

    I never enjoyed going out in service but once I was actually at a door and speaking , my whole heart was into it. Thank God I didn't bring anyone in.

    I enjoyed meeting people, what's wrong with that?

    There's not a thing wrong with it although, the householder whom you woke up on their day off , uninvited, and talking about something they don't want to hear about may see things differently.

    larc - you feel sorry because I didn't believe your message, or because I question the purpose for delivering the message ?

    Looking back, I must admit that I was at first truly committed to helping people change their life for the better and to get everlasting life. After a while, I just wanted to see how many bible studies, mags, and books I could "sell". Oh yeah, trying to destroy peoples' faith in Christ was on the lisat too.

    I am still haunted by the faces of some of the nice people I destroyed with false reasoning.
